TILBURN will SELL by AUCTION, at the Mansion-house in Doncaster, on THURSDAY, the 9.3 th day of October, at Two o'Clock, the ROSSINGTON ESTATE, comprehending the entire Manor, Lordship, and Parish of Rossington, the property of the Corporation of Doncaster, si tuate in a favourite part of the county of York, extending over nearly 3,000 acres of fertile arable (turnip and barley soil ), meadow, pasture, and wood lands, within a ring fence, subdivided into 14 eligible farms by thriving quickset hedges. The whole of the rural village of Rossington (except the rectory) composed chiefly of modern farm-houses, home-steads, and agricultural buildings, all in good order and condition, well built and judiciously planned with great consideration to the occupancy and convenience of an old and highly respected tenantry, with comfortable cottages and pro lific gardens for an industrious and well-regulated labouring popu lation. Shooters'-hill, the residence of IL F. A. Freeman, Esq., delightfully situate ' is part of the valuable domain, approached from it s l o d ge on t h e London-road, and the mansion, though of unassuming pretension, is full of comfort, presenting a neat eleva tion, environed by tastefully displayed plantations, gardens, plea sure grounds, and park like enclosures, quite a gentleman's resi dence, replete with all requisite domestic offices ; and complete farm buildings, for 400 acres of land attached, and let on building lease at a low rent, with the mansion, commanding extensive and varied scenery over the soft undulating and far spreading woods of Ros sington, (the town of Doncaster in view,) and closed by rising grounds and woods in the distant horizon. Rossington Grange, secluded by sheltering woods, and watered by the Thorne Rivulet. On the westerly side of the estate is a highly respectable farm residence, with capital homestead, buildings, and premises for 300 acres of land, forming altog e th er o ne o f the most valuable farms of the neighbourhood. The Inn, called the Corporation Arms, but more generally k nown b y the appeflation of Rossington-bridge, with its excellent accommodation, stabling for 100 horses, and spacious farmstead and lands, is admirably situate by the high London road on the northern boundary, and has attained, under the present management, that well-merited reputation which its sporting and agricultural friends are on all occasions anxious to proclaim. The luxuriant woods and thriving plantations, pro verbial for their neat and healthy appearance, and the theme of general praise, contain nearly 300 acres, yielding a very considerable annual income, including the Hunster, Helms' Carr, and Parks' Woods, of fine grown oak timber, which, with the other covers upon the estate, and the approximating strictly preserved grounds of J. Walbanke Childers, Esq., M.P., George Greaves, Esq , and others, and parts of the Nottinghamshire po s s ess i ons o f hi s Grace the Duke of Newcastle, afford covert and plain shooting equal to any in the kingdom. The vicinity of Doncaster has been justly celebrated for its numerous seats of the nobility and gentry and fashionable society. The fox-hunting excellent, the Badsworth and Scarborough kennels close at hand, and the Fitzwilliam and Bramham Hunts within distance. The Manor of Rossington, with the rights, royalties, and immunities thereunto appertaining, is co extensive with the lordship, and held by the Corporation of Don caster, by Royal grant from Edward I. Both are of freehold tenure ; the land-tax is redeemed, and the tithes commuted to 6141. per annum. The present rental of the farms upon the estate, with the woods in hand, is estimated at 3,2001. per annum. It would be vain to attempt to describe all the advantages which this beautiful domain uossesses. It must be seen to be fully appreciated, and it may in truth be said to be one of the most compact and de sirable estates in the county, and a capital and substantial landed investment. The advowson, or perpetual right of presentation to the Rectory of Rossington, of the annual value of upwards of 7001., is in the gift of the Corporation, and will be sold subsequently under the direction - of her Majesty's Ecclesiastical Commissioners.

The Judge referred the matter to Mr. Forrest, prothonotary, who asked, first, where the wit. fleas had come from, and secondly, how long he had been here. It appeared that he cane from Dublin, and left that place on Saturday last, and that in consideration of this ho had already been paid 101., and was to have his expenses paid. Mr. Forrest said that the witness had received quite enough ; and his ob jection to be sworn was overruled by his Lordship.

THE GREAT WALKING MATCH.—Molloy still continues walking; he looks greatly fatigued, but says he has not the slightest doubt but he will accomplish his extraordinary self imposed task. The steam-ship Sirius, which sailed from the river on Wednesday the Ist inst., reached Cronstadt on the Bth, having performed the voyage in seven days, including a de tention of twenty hours at the Sounds. RAPACITY OF A I - lAwK.—A few days ago sparrow-hawk, wlii!t hovering over the premises of Mr. V. Newham, of this town, perceived some canaries hung up in a cage in a room with the window open ; the temptation was too strong to resist ; he flew in, attacked them with all the voraciousness of his species, and in all probability would have soon destroyed the whole of them had it not been for a boy who was on the premises, and who immediately flew to their . I rescue; having sufficient p r esence of mind to close the dow, he with so m e diffi cu lty succee d e l in capturing the in truder.—/lull Times. It has been gravely remarked, that the decline and fall cf beards has generally accompanied and foreshadowed the de cline and fall of states. They were bearded Romans who conquered the then beardless Greeks—they were bearded Goths who vanquished the then beardless Romans. Painting has carried the boldness of its eulogium still fur ther, having made a long beard one of the characterist;c marks of the Supreme Being. The pagan Jupiter, aid the graver inhabitants of Olympus would not be known without this majestic appendage. It was by touching the b and of Jove that the subordinate divinities swore the most sacred of their oaths. Philosophy, till our smooth-faced days, consi dered it as the appropriate symbol of the profession. Zoilus, according to &lien, used to shave his head in order to ncuristi the growth of his beard and critical discrimination at the same time; and Lucian informs us cf a certain individual tcho was deemed unqualified for a professorship which he aspired to, in (consequence of the shortness of his beard. In fine, Judaic rigour, Egyptian wisdom, Attic elegance, and Roman virtue, have been the beard's fond and cherishing protectors. The Jews anointed it with sweet unguents, and the sacred oil " ran down from Aaron's beard to the skirts of his garment " The Greeks, according to Athenmus, wore their beards till they lost them and freedom together, in the time of Alexan der the Great. Alexander himself naa as determined a re former on this point as Peter the Great, although, when he compelled the Macedonians to shave their beards, he asaigned a different reason—namely, that the length of their beards gave a handle to the enemy. Among the Romans shaving,- the beard was was not introduced, according to Pliny, till the year of Rome 454, when Publius Sicinius introduced a stock of barbers from Sicily. These gentlemen pushed their trade so actively that, in the time of Scipio Africanus, the Roman patricians shaved every day; and the period of cutting the beard for the first time was made the occasion of formal visits between the various branches of the aristocracy. Chrysostom observes that the Kings of Persia had their beards knotted or woven together with gold thread • a cus tom which was also fashionable among the first Kings of France. The Egyptian Kings, if we may trust their monu ments, were either wholly shaven, or had their beards cut into a rhomboidal form. The Chinese, according to Lecent, arect long beards extravagantly ; but nature has baulked them, by giving them a very diminutive growth of hair on the chin. In Russia, Peter the Great's well known shaving edict nearly caused a revolution; " No shaving," was the watchword from Petersburg to Moscow ;:and the Autocrat was obliged to employ a certain number of able-bodied soldiers, in order, cot so much to separate their beards from the Russians, as tke Russians from their dearly-beloved beards. As to France, one of the greatest misfortunes which she had ever to lament, namely, the divorce of Louis le Jeune from Elinor of Gu yenne, resulted from th e f a Shi on w hi c h t hi s P r i nce w i s h e d to introduce of shaving the chin and cropping the head; the lady observing that she expected to have married a monarch ai.d not a monk. The obstinacy of Louis in shaving himself, and the horror con ce i ve d b y Eli nor at t h e s i g h t of abeardless chin, occasioned France the loss of her fairest provinces, and was indeed the primary cause of the war which raged between France and England for four centuries. In England the Reformation gradually introduced liberty and free shaving; and finally expelled beards and the Stuarts together. Begirds made a transitory effo:t to resuscitate tlntir decaying honours in the anti-reformation days of Queen Mary ; but, during the civil wars, they dwindled down to little Letter than military moustachios. _ Passing over to Spain, we shall not find the grave and magniloquent Spaniard behind other nations in high apprecia tien of beards. Quevedo, in his " Third Vision of Judg ment," introduces one of his countrymen, whose beard had been disordered while he was receiving sentence, refusing to file off in the guardianship of a brace of evil spirits till they had recomposed the ruffled emblem of dignity with a pair of curling irons. But none carry their affectionate respect for this distinguishing characteristic of man to a greater length than the Tut ks. It is, among them, the mark of liberty and authority, and many a Turk would prefer death to losing it. It is anointed and perfumed, as if it were sacred, and its pre servation is a capital article of the Mahometan religion. A Turkish wife kisses the beard of her husband—a child that of his father ; friends swear by it, and, in parting, reci procally kiss each other's beards with respectful devotion. They even gather up the hairs which drop from their beards while coming them, fold them up carefully in paper, and carry them for inhumation to the place where they bury the dead. Nor was the Chris:jail Church, at one time, behind the Maho metan religion in reverence. Not only provincial and na tional, hut general councils have been convened, synods have been summoned, and cloistered chapters of every denomina tion have been assembled to consider, at different periods, the growth of the human visage. Infinite disputes have been en gendered, sometimes with respect to its form, at others with regard to its existence. The Catholic Church, in one age, in terested itself in contending for that p o i n t e d f crm to which na ture conducts it ; at a succeeding period anathemas have been denounced against those who refused to give it a rounder shape ; and to these other denunciations have followed, which. changed it to the square cr the scollop. Hitherto the disputes were confined to the Western chuceb, but when innovation grasped the tensors—when the beard lessened into whiskers, and the scythe of ecclesiastical disci pline threatened to mow down every hair from off the " human face divine," the Churches of Asia and Africa took the alarm, and supported by . violence, invective, and remonstrance, their right and title to those undiminished honours of the chin which they enjoyed in the west. The Gallic Church alone made any effectual stand against the radical change of the ecclesiastical razor. Fierce contests were waged with various success by the Barbites and unti.Barbites ; at length a compromise was made ; and the Bishops compounded the matter with their re fractory clergy, by giving up the greater part of the beard, but retaining the growth of the upper lip in the form of whiskers. Tranquillity was thus restored ; and the preacher of peace, for a considerable time after, appeared on all public occasions en moustache, exhibiting to his highly edified flock the fierce, terrific aspect of a German pandour, as an emblem of the Church militant. At length the persecuted beard was driven from this, its last important place of refuge in our quarter of the globe, and if we except the corner of European Turkey, now finds its only asylum in the Capuchin cloister.— Court Journal. JEW'S WEDDING. (From the Shrewsbury Chronicle.) On Tuesday week Whitchurch exhibited one universal scene of delight. For the first time in this town the interest ing ceremony of an Israelitish wedding took place. Every lover of Scriptural antiquities must venerate the customs of the patriarchs of old. Customs preserved by the Jews to this day, as confirmed by the law given by Moses, through all the vicissitudes and persecutions of their nation, throughout 3,000 or more years. An eye-witness has sent us the following parti culars :--On entering the room we found Rabbi Aaroa Levi, Priest of the Jews, front London, occupied in writing upon a parchment, what we understood to be the mar_ riage contract; the Rabbi having concluded the contract, handed it to others present to read, and then to the happy bridegroom, who, after apparently well considering the con tents, which were written in the Hebrew language, signed the same, as did also two witnesses ; this being done, the bride groom was conducted from the room again, the bride being all this time invisible ; a canopy was then erected, being sup p,)rted by four persons of the Jewish faith, and solemn strains of music announced the approach of the bridegroom ; the Reverend Official having placed himself beneath the canopy, the bridegroom was conducted in, supported on both sides by two male friends ; again the sound of music proclaimed the approach of the grid', who was supported as the bridegroom, but by two ladies. We could not help here remarking the strict Scriptural dress of the fair bride, who was arrayed its pure white, elegantly selected, being covered with a veil, as in Genesis, c. 24, v. 65. The music having ceased, the Vele, still supported, was thrice led round her future bus— band. This part we take emanates from the marriage of Jacob and Leah, Jacob having his bride veiled, marries Leah instead of Rachel—Genesis, c. 29, v. 31. Thus giving the bridegroom an opportunity of judging from the gait, or figure of his intended wife, as he has no chance of viewing her countenance through the folds of her veil. Having thus circled round she was placed on the right side of her future lord ; the priest proceeded then to pronounce a blessing upon all pre'ent, holding a glass of wine in his hand, which, after tit: conclusion et the prayer was handed by a friend to the happy couple, in token of peace with all the world; they loc.ing sipped the same mosiestly, handed it to the before.. named friend. The Venerable Rabbi then proceeded to read aloud the document before described, and then a second glass was tilled, and a pram offered up for the future grace of the new couple, and the wine again was tasted by both. the young people in token of consent to each other • then fol lowed a solem n s il ence , a moment o f suspense, and the rie.g was produced. The fair hand of the bride was extended, :rad the ring being handed to the Rabbi, who first exhibited at to °ther s, and then examined it himself, and handing the riattg to the bridegroom, lie placed it upon the forefinger of the right hand, and pronouncing the words—" Raliad Mekadasith Leh, Zu Kadth Mosha Veh, Yesrael," Anglo, Thus I thee wed, according to the laws of Israel, as by Moses com manded. The bridegroom leaving the ring upon the hand of the bride, a glass wa.i placed upon the ground, and the brittle vessel was shattered in a thousand pieces by the right foot of: the bridegroom. A token .of the uncertainty of life ; in :.11 oit joys we are shattered in it moment. The sudden cba- A ge font solemnity to joy was electric; no sooner was the 'glass in the dust than the music struck up in lively note; the, place resounded with the words " Joy, joy," the congre.sulations were heartfelt and exhilarating,. The veil of the bride was in a moment respectfully removed, and she ste ad before us with eyes streathicg thanks ; and the cereme`Aes were con eltv'ed by a prayer, a benediction, and a. s%.pplication for the blessing of Jehovah op the young course, their friends, and _dl mankind. .
